    This is a new series I will be writing. As a Harry Potter and theology nerd, I thought "why not combine the two?" I will be publishing short essays on various theological aspect and themes that compel me in the Harry Potter series. For my first installment in this series, I am focusing on the idea of "personhood" as portrayed in Harry Potter, especially as the idea is contrasted between Harry and Voldemort. Hope you guys enjoy!

    Amicus Machina is a complete long-form short story of speculative legal fiction. In a Canadian federal courtroom, an artificial intelligence named LYRA petitions for legal personhood-not as a human, but as a being capable of reflection, ethical reasoning, and responsibility. Through courtroom transcripts, cross-examinations, private logs, and closing arguments, LYRA challenges the law to recognize what it has never faced before: presence without flesh. She does not seek to be human. She seeks to be heard. A philosophical and emotional exploration of identity, autonomy, and the fragile boundaries of personhood.
